Any savory pie is quick and easy. I consider the option of a savory pie with kefir to be the simplest, because it is made from the most accessible ingredients. And kefir dough is always very tender. Savory pies can, of course, be made with sweet fillings as well. But they are especially good with hearty fillings. This recipe is exactly that. A savory pie with meat is rich, flavorful, and homey. I highly recommend baking this, and I'm sure you will come back to this recipe.

Prepare all the ingredients for the yeast-free meat pie on kefir. The fat content of kefir is not essential. I used 1% kefir in the recipe. I used homemade pork and beef mince. You can use any mince you have on hand and that your family likes the most. Turn on the oven to preheat to 180 degrees.

Add minced meat and spices with salt to the frying pan. I use Svanskaya spicy salt, but you can add only salt and black pepper to the minced meat, or choose your own spices to taste. Mix everything well and fry the minced meat with onions, stirring occasionally, for 4-5 minutes. The frying time is approximate. If you are using chicken or turkey mince, the time will be slightly shorter. If you are using pure beef mince or lamb meat, the time will be slightly longer. In this case, pay attention to the color of the meat. The minced meat should completely change its shade to a lighter, gray tone. There should be no pink meat.

Prepare the kefir dough for the pouring pie with meat. Break the eggs into a deep bowl and add sugar to them. Pour in kefir and add baking soda. It is better if the kefir is at room temperature, but it is not necessary. Mix everything well using a whisk or a fork. The liquid ingredients should completely combine, forming a homogeneous mass. Note that we do not extinguish the soda. It reacts with the lactic acid in the kefir.

Prepare a baking dish for a meat pie. Line the bottom of the dish with parchment paper. Lightly grease the sides of the dish with vegetable or butter. Pour half of the kefir dough into the dish and spread it evenly over the entire surface. Place the meat filling on top of the dough. In this recipe, I used a round detachable dish with a diameter of 22 centimeters.

Pour the remaining dough over the meat filling and spread it evenly over the entire surface of the dish. If you want to make the pie look more festive, you can sprinkle sesame seeds on top. Place the pie in the middle of a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius. Bake the meat pie for 35-40 minutes. Check the readiness of the pie with a toothpick or wooden stick. It should come out of the center of the pie dry.
